Is there a list of software that gets installed when you run "setup.sh auto"?...
OR much better...
an options.conf and php_extensions.conf that spells that out that we could download that contains them so that we could change a couple things in them and see where things go. Example: I want MySQL, NOT Mariah, and I want ProFTPd, not Pure-FTPd, and might want to try PHP 8.0 instead of the default 7.4. E.G. let DirectAdmin take care of the best practices and so that we don't have to install them later, but yet enable us to change a few things such. If you prestage your own files, it will follow them pretty well except at the end it will tell you that it switched your no to yes on secure PHP, whether you like it or not, and the only way to avoid that is to do an interactive setup. That may be a good thing and what most people use, but I don't know if there are any disadvantages or not. Apparently DA doesn't think so.
The other thing is they recommend adding nosuid on /home. The tmp directory mounting flags are no-brainers, but I don't know of the drawbacks to nosuid on /home because I've never used it before. Their comment "if you can" indicates it could be an issue.
